About the black screen, I suggest you enable 'kern.kms_console' (see 
SYSCONS(4)).
KMS console was still considered "experimental" in the 4.2 release but 
has
recently been switch on in "master".
About automatically running MATE upon typing "startx", simply add
'exec mate-session' in your '~/.xinitrc' file.
